I don't know if linking multiple shared libraries together like that is
going to work. You might need to compile libxyz.generated as a static
lib.

Right, because file() is run at CMake time but you need to work with
files generated at make time.

I can't think of a good way to do this (it seems to me you'd have to
generate the list at make time and then somehow interpolate the list
into the already-written Makefile -- sounds ugly).
Can you change how you use the generator so that the files it writes
have predictable names?
